Possible Layout bug..?

 Something strange is happening in one of my layouts. There's a smart marker that appears but it is not actually there. Not in the lists and calculation, not in the plan view (even if I right-click it in the layout and ask to straight open the source view, so it's not about layers, options, renovation, ecc...). See the attached image: left is what it should be and right it what I get in the layout.  I really could not fix it other than patch the layout with some 2d lines and fills.

I am very worried because these drawings are legally valuable documentation and I already sent it to public administration and I need to trust the software. Mistakes are not welcome. Has anyone experienced this issue?

I’ve seen this behaviour before. If you close the file then open it again from within Archicad using File-open and make sure you select open and repair option that may fix it. It usually fixes it for me.

I've had views getting corrupted, too. Sometimes just making a complete new view helped.
